I’m thrilled to share with you one of my favorite strategies for simplifying your marketing efforts. If you’ve ever found yourself overwhelmed by the sheer volume of content you need to produce each week, you’re not alone. But what if I told you that you could create an entire week’s worth of marketing material from just one blog post? Sounds like a dream, right? Well, it’s entirely possible, and I’m here to walk you through it.
Listen on the podcast or keep reading!
First things first, let’s talk about the blog post itself. The key is to start with a well-thought-out blog post topic that offers real value to your audience. It’s gotta be something they want to read and applies directly to them. For instance, I recently wrote a post titled “5 Reasons to Book an At-Home Lifestyle Newborn Session”. It serves my ideal clients and repels ones that want studio session. This post will serve as your cornerstone content, and from here, you can branch out to create various pieces of marketing material.

Your blog post is packed with valuable information, so let’s break it down into smaller, digestible pieces. For our example, we have five reasons why someone should book an at-home lifestyle newborn session. Each of these reasons can become a standalone piece of content.
Start by sharing the full blog post on Facebook. This is your initial push to get the content out there. But don’t stop there! Schedule 5 additional posts, each focusing on one of the reasons from your blog post. For instance, one post could be about the comfort of having a session at home, another about the convenience, and so on. Add a few photos to each post to make them more engaging.
Instagram is perfect for visual storytelling. Create a carousel post summarizing the blog post with 10 beautiful photos from the session. Then, break down each reason into individual posts. For example, you can do a carousel post focusing on including pets and then share images you’ve taken of pets at newborn sessions. Use the same captions from your Facebook posts, tweaking them slightly to fit Instagram’s format.
Don’t forget about LinkedIn and Google My Business! Share the blog post on LinkedIn just like you did on Facebook. For Google My Business, you can share snippets of the blog post over the week. While Google My Business doesn’t allow scheduling, having a document ready with your snippets makes it easy to post manually.
Pinterest is a goldmine for driving traffic to your blog. Pin the main blog post and create additional pins for each of the reasons you discussed. Use eye-catching images and compelling descriptions to attract clicks.
Video content is king, and platforms like TikTok and Instagram Reels are perfect for this. Create a short video where you talk about the five reasons to book an at-home lifestyle newborn session. You can either do a face-to-camera video or use photos from the session with text overlays. Break it down into shorter clips if needed and share them throughout the week.
Your email list is one of your most valuable assets. Send out a newsletter featuring your new blog post. You can include a summary of the post and direct your subscribers to your blog for the full article. This not only drives traffic to your site but also keeps your audience engaged.
If you’re part of any local mom groups or forums, share your blog post there. The key is to provide value without coming off as too salesy. Frame it as helpful advice rather than a direct advertisement.
Let’s recap how you can stretch one blog post into a week’s worth of content:
1. Facebook: Share the full blog post and schedule six additional posts.
2. Instagram: Create a carousel post summarizing the blog and individual posts for each reason.
3. LinkedIn: Share the blog post.
4. Google My Business: Share snippets of the blog post throughout the week.
5. Pinterest: Pin the main blog post and additional pins for each reason.
6. TikTok and Reels: Create short videos or photo compilations.
7. Email Newsletter: Send out a summary of the blog post with a link to read more.
8. Local Groups and Forums: Share your post as helpful advice
By leveraging your blog post across multiple platforms, you’re not only saving time but also ensuring that your content reaches a wider audience. Remember, the goal is to repurpose and reformat your content to fit different platforms, making it easier for you to maintain a consistent presence without feeling overwhelmed.
So, the next time you sit down to write a blog post, think of it as your hero content. With a little planning and creativity, you can turn that one piece of content into a marketing powerhouse for the entire week. Happy blogging!
